The problem isn't to provide the GCC rpm, it's a easy to do task, the 
problem is that MintLib and the kernel need minor adaptations.

The GCC3 inline asm interface has changed since 2.95 and to provide a 
GCC 3.x rpm who can't compile mintlib and the kernel is a no-sense.

When I ask at the sparemint maintainers to provide a gcc 3.x rpm, I mean 
that the whole systeme will be able to compile with it...

Yes, I use actually gcc 2.95 in /usr/bin and gcc 3.3 in /usr/local/bin

You need only to make a link to /usr/local/bin/gcc to /usr/local/bin/gcc3

After, you can change( or not) CC=gcc in CC=gcc3 in your makefile.
